Will blog about my Hiroshima trip some other time because I'm still sorting out pictures. I think I took way too many pictures...(*_*)

Anyway, met up with my fellow SKS classmates yesterday at SU Korean restaurant. As usual, everyone was late. Normally I dont really mind if people are late but yesterday was kind of bad because I needed to leave early and Felie was going to reach like after I leave. In fact, she did arrive after I left. -_-. The reason why I left early was to go watch Hanayori Dango Final(HYDF) with Li Ming. HYDF was interesting throughout the whole movie(like Cyborg She) and why are Japanese guys(e.g. Oguri Shun and Matsuda Shota) so cute one ar?! I felt that they didnt give Oguri Shun, Matsuda Shota and Abe Tsuyoshi enough screen time. They came out for like only a few minutes in total lor! So disappointing...I was anticipating more Hanazawa Rui initially. =( Although HYDF was interesting, the storyline was so predictable(guessed the plot like 20minutes into the movie) and unreal...like seriously, it's never going to happen in real life! Okay, I think that nobody's going to understand what I just wrote but whatever la, like as if anyone understands what I wrote in my previous entries anyway. Lalala, I talk nonsense and I'm proud of it.

After the 130minutes movies, I rushed back to SU to continue eating. Yes, they were still eating there after like 3 hours. Whee~ Ordered cold noodles there and were happily eating it until the waiter came over, saw that we didnt add the vinegar and mustard, and proceeded to exclaim out loud, "You didnt add these?!" He then helped us to add the vinegar and mustard in and asked us to try how it tasted like. All of us agreed that it tasted better without adding anything. (^_^) I guess we have different tastebuds from the Koreans. When he saw our expressions, he thought that he added too much vinegar or something and proceeded to taste his masterpiece. "It's good, but we add more mustard in Korea." Erm, okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. Then again, it was nice of him to teach us the right way of eating cold noodles. =D

After eating, we started to take weird photos in the restaurant and I think that we seriously scared the people eating/working there. Paiseh lo, when four crazy people get together, they tend to get a bit rowdy and crazy. Too bad Ann's still in Australia otherwise I think that SU would've probably ban us from the restaurant for the rest of our lives. When I say weird photos, I really mean weird photos...ta-da~


Us again, with Eileen trying to "attract" the waiter who mixed the cold noodles for us. Peggy and Eileen thought that he was kind of cute and was trying to take his photos the whole time but only managed to take photos of his back. Eh---------lousy photographers. Should've had asked me to take...confirm can take face one. Had enough training back in my JC paparazzi days. Heh.


Another siao(crazy) group photo. Then again, looking at all the pictures that we took, I'm like the only one giving weird facial expressions. Oh no!!! Am I the only siao one?!


After a very filling 3+ hours meal, we continued our "Get Fat" mission at Gelare. Ordered this wonderfully chocolatey double-scoop Cookies and Cream ice-cream topped with Koko Krunch and Oreo biscuits...


...chocolate brownie topped with vanilla ice-cream and a outside-crispy-inside-chewy waffle with 2 scoops of ice- cream. In total, we ate like 5 scoops of ice-cream...how not to get fat?!


Why do I look scared of Peggy here? Hmm...


Cant stand it...why are there so many strange photos of me?! Come to think of it, I havent taken weird photos like this in a long long la la time. Whee~


Eileen with her True Yoga bag and waterbottle. Eh, you think that you're True Yoga spokesperson ar?! -_-


Group photo minus Eileen because I aimed the camera at the wrong direction. See, told you that my photography skills are superb!


Whee~


Anyway, went karaoke-ing with hy, Eugene and Kevin today. Cash Studios is like my favourite karaoke place right now. We sang for more than 4 hours and they didnt charge us extra. Somemore can bring in your own food and drinks....seriously, how do they earn money?! They even offered to change our rooms for us because the next group of people who booked the room that we were using were coming soon. Damn nice =D The waitress kept smiling at us somemore. Normally at places like Kbox, the waitresses have this "I-cant-be-bothered-about-you" look plastered across their faces. Surprisingly, Kevin was like damn good at singing. He can sing songs by both male and female artistes and his rap was damn cool. Eh, isnt that like my sister? Heh.

Ate at Ajitei for dinner with hy. Ordered lots of food and dessert as well!!! Had substandard yomogi dango for dessert. The shape of the dango reminded me more of a lemon than a dango...wtf.


Had pizza for supper. Damn cool la the shape! The pizza tasted wonderful too by the way.


Okay, shall end this post abruptly because I got nothing else to write. More pictures of the crazy four of us here: http://mizu- kioku.net/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=200.

Shopping~!

Did a little shopping yesterday and today. Bought books, leggings, dresses and cosmetics. Damn happy with my purchases but at the same time, I'm feeling really broke. I'm seriously in need of money. Please contribute to the "Save Jiahui Fund" by contacting me. Any amount will be appreciated.

Nah, just kidding. Then again, it wouldn't hurt. Lalala. Accompanied Donna for her interview at SMU yesterday (and to also do some shopping). While waiting at the bench outside SMU, because one cant enter the SMU building if you do not have a SMU pass(wtf), I saw quite a number of SMU students dressed up in formal wear. Seriously, it was 7+ in the evening and it's the freaking holidays for goodness sake! Wear something casual can! I know that there's summer term but did they really have to wear so nice for school? I don't even bother putting on a nice T-shirt for school lor. I wear crumpled old T-shirts to school. =D Then again, I'm not from SMU...and that's probably why I got weird "Oh-my-god-look-at-her-dressed-so-shabbily" stares from formal-wear-students.

Before going to SMU, we had a little tea break at Coffee Club Express...or whatever the shop was called. Ordered a chicken pie and iced mocha. The chicken pie was so freaking good and it was the first time that I was served a chicken pie that was already cut open. The filling was scrumptious but it tasted a bit like the chicken vegetable stew by Campbell that I love.


Not-so-secretly took a photo of Donna while she was erm...looking at her iced tea.


Didnt drink my iced mocha straight away when it arrived. When I finally got down to drinking it, some of the ice had already melted and my drink was basically overflowing, thus, dirtying the table. Damn paiseh and sorry to whoever who had to clean it up.


Went out today with Kym to Vivocity. Ate at Earle Swensen's. The salad buffet was not bad, the meat was passable but the vegetables was...horrible. Ice cream was delicious as usual. Hee. Walked around Vivocity and while at Nichii Fashion City, we saw this Lindsay Lohan t-shirt. Erm...damn old picture can.


Next, we went to Zara. Normally Zara stuff are like freaking expensive but as they were having a sale, prices were slashed by ALOT and so...I made my first ever purchase from Zara. Whee~ Had coffee at Starbucks and I never knew until today that there's two Starbucks outlets in Vivocity. Seriously, need so many outlets in ONE shopping centre meh?!

Okay, shall resume watching online videos. Lalala.

Singapore Korean School - A2

Yesterday marked the end of my Korean A2 class. Received my results and I was surprised to see that my teacher gave me 19 out of 20 marks for my oral test. The reason's because during the free response question where she asked how the course was, I replied "It was good." My answer was freaking short compared to the rest of my classmates where they answered stuff like "It was difficult but I learnt a lot of new stuff. Also, it was pretty interesting...." and so on. Also, I only made 2 mistakes on my written paper. Whee~ The highest mark I've ever gotten since erm...Elementary 1 where I scored full marks. Heh.

Enough of my haolian-ing, I shall proceed to write about the cultural night that happened after class yesterday. Each class had to perform a skit(or song if there's not enough time to prepare). One of the classes actually ran off after taking their result slips, leaving their poor teacher behind to clear up the mess they left behind, i.e., explain to the emcee why her class wasn't able to perform. That class' so fucking irresponsible and childish, considering that most of the students are working adults.

The event started off with a skit put up by Elementary 1 Class 1, where they did...erm...Snow Prince. The guy in the picture acted as the prince. Sometimes it kind of sucks to be the only guy in the class because he'll always get bullied by the girls to do whatever they dont want to do. =P


Next up was a song performance by Advanced 1. They did this fox song and they were quite good~


Loved the cute hats that they made. Seriously, almost all of the classes made props and costumes for their skits. I say almost because our class did not. In fact, our class only came together to rehearse on that day itself and even so, only half the class attended the rehearsal.


Elementary 2 went next with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The woman in grey played the role of the magic mirror and the one in black played Snow White's evil stepmother. The actors weren't very audible(considering that the judge sat way behind me, if I couldn't hear already, how could he have heard anything?!) but that didn't stop them from getting first prize...but I think that it's because they're from Elementary 2, i.e., Min-seonsaengnim's class. Her class always win something during cultural night. Predictable. I overheard one of the staff saying that the class who did Coffee Prince was better.


Next up was Intermediate 1 but I didn't take any pictures because my Felie arrived at that time and I was briefing her on our skit and...Intermediate 1 was basically too soft so yup, couldn't hear anything. Elementary 3 went next with Coffee Prince where they had puppets to introduce their skit. See what I meant when I said about bringing props.


Meet-the-Parents session. The lady who acted as the mum was so freaking bitchy, and I mean it in a good way. I like. Haha.


Elementary 1 Class 2 performed Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. They too, had lots of props. Second prize went to them.


Last but not least, my class performed My Name is Kim Sam Soon. The youngest person in my class, i.e. me, played the role of Sam Soon's mother...wtf. I initially volunteered for the role because I thought that the mother would have very little lines. I mean, look at the title of the show! Sam Soon's the main character lor. In the end, the mother had the most lines and I had to use a freaking mike throughout my performance otherwise I'll probably go dumb by the end of the skit.

Oh, and this is me hitting Hak Pang, the guy who acted as Samshik. Everyone laughed when they heard that he was Samshik and went crazy laughing when I started hitting him. He's quite well-known among the students by the way. Oh, and the audience burst out in laughter again when Samshik started winking at Sam Soon so as to ask her to lie about her being pregnant. -____-


One reason why you shouldn't mess with me. I'll hit you with a broom till you faint. Hahaha, wtf.


I forgot my lines in the middle of the performance and luckily my teacher was there to prompt me. Paiseh. Hak Pang and Aileen are like damn good actors can! They seem damn scared of me here...haha. I was basically telling Sam Soon(Aileen) to keep queit and questioning Samshik(Hak Pang) about his family background here.


The principal announcing the winners. It was quite funny when he said "For those classes who do not win anything today, please continue to join our classes next term".


Aileen and Hwang Jung Hee seonsaengnim.


We ended up getting 3rd prize, which was quite good considering we didnt really prepare much.
Hak Pang, Hwang seonsaengnim, Aileen, Felie, Me...and my "dog" who guest starred as Ocheonmanwon in our skit. So sad, I won't be seeing them again in class because I might not be taking the next level. Boo.

We basically divided up our prize before attacking the buffet table where there was kimbap, chap chae, ddeok and kimchi. Ta-da~ Settled dinner.


My teacher commented that I looked very tired that day and I did not believe her until I saw this picture. My eyes look damn slity can!!! I should stop staying up to 3~4am.


Anyway, I guess I was too nervous or something that day and got too relaxed after the performance that I developed a pretty bad case of stomachache. Couldn't even walk straight. Couldn't even stuff my face with ddeok and kimbap. Boo.

Went out to have lunch with Donna today. Ate at Ajisen and I tried silverfish for the first time. WTF the silverfish anyway? The only silverfish that I know is that icky insect or whatever that likes to crawl in old books. Eeeeew. Tasted damn nice though, the silverfish(the actual fish, not the insect) dish.

Studied at Mac afterwards. The problem with studying at Mac is that...there's just too much temptations!!! Succumbed to temptation and ordered oreo cheesecake. Damn sinful can! After we finished eating, we used the leftover chocolate sauce to draw smiley faces.


I'm an artist in the making! Yoohoo. Please get my signature now before I become a famous artist so that you can sell it for $$$ in the future. (Not going to happen for sure.)


After studying, to reward ourselves, we went...SHOPPING. I havent shopped for like weeks and it was really relaxing and fun to shop like crazy. Bought the above pair of shoes for only $19.90 at Mondo. Damn freaking cheap.


$10 dress. What, I cannot be a cheapo ar?! I love cheap stuff~


This dress was a bit big for me but it was so pretty so I bought it anyway. Not very clear in the photo but the bottom of the dress' really shiny. I fancy shiny stuff. Bling bling~

I obviously did not buy these few items only but I bought much much more but I'm too lazy to upload those photos. Hee :D

This post is so meaningless. Sorry for killing your brain cells if you read this. :D

21/03/08 - Donna's 21st

Went down to the post office today to collect a few parcels and really regreted doing so.
Reason no. 1: Apparently, the Saturday after a public holiday is called the peak period so there were lots of people there.
Reason no. 2: People near the front of the queue were either rooted to the ground or had undergone rigor mortis or something...They all just refused to move up front even though there was lots of space in front of them. In the end, people at the back(me) had to stay put in the increasingly squeezy queue. :(

Enough of the post office and let me blog about Donna's 21st dinner that took place on Good Friday.


Ate at this place called Trattoria Lafiandra which is located in the Singapore Art Museum. Dont ask me how to pronounce the name because I dont know how to anyway.



The restaurant was really pretty and there was a couple holding their small engagement party there~...or at least I thought that it was an engagement party. If it was not, then they were seriously overdressed. The head waiter there was really humourous and friendly~



Me and the birthday girl~



First, we had antipasti, which basically means starters. This dish was some eggplant cooked with tons of cheese. It was really cheesy and tasty~



Parma ham with rock melon with that green thing on top of it. The saltiness of the ham, mixed with the sweetness of the rock melon, was just too delicious for words. Yummilicious~



Not sure what this is called in Italian but basically, it's italian seafood tempura. Although it's fried but it did not have the icky oily taste and instead, it tasted really light and fluffy. Fuwafuwa~Okay, I dont know how tempura can taste like fluffy but it just felt like that to me. I obviously cant be a food critic. :D



Vongoles. I rabu seafood.



This is how much I rabu seafood. After eating 2 out of 4 starters that contained seafood, I still went to order Spaghetti Al Frutti Di Mare, which is like spaghetti with seafood and tomato sauce. It was so delicious to the extent that I finished everything~(of course I didnt eat the shells lar!) I normally dont have the habit of finishing my food but I did this time round so yup...this dish was good.



Donna ordered ravioli and I kept reading the menu as rivoli, as in Rue de Rivoli. This is what happens when one studies too much French.



Initially, Donna thought that there would be no cake but her sister surprised her with this Tiramisu cake which was delicious...and fattening I must add. Hee~



ATTACK~!
 


The people who turned up for the dinner.



Can I have some 'chilly' please?



Erm...'Chilly' promoter?



Say Lin and Shawn. The 3 BPGHS people who were there(including myself), did not know each other at all. Seen probably seen before but just didnt know each other because all of us were from different classes. 401, 402 and 405...I think.



The SMU group.



After the extremely fulfiling dinner, everyone started to take photos outside the arts museum. Somehow, this artpiece scares me alot. Probably because her eyes look like my goldfish's eyes...when it died.



Nngapooru?



Imjad reminds me of Sir Stamford Raffles in this picture.



If you are able to spot me in the photo, you'll notice that I look like as if my head's placed on the guillotine or something. I had like difficulties trying to place my head above the 'SAM' blocks okay! It's not exactly my fault that I'm short though. Blame my parents. :P



Dam.cool.picture. Attracted lots of weird stares from passers-by though.



Walked over to the Esplanade from the arts museum and it did NOT take 20 minutes, like what Donna's friend said. It took more than that...but it aided in digestion though. Passed by Chijmes and I really wanted to enter the maid cafe to take a look.



Had a drink at Harry's. Darshini ordered Snowball and Donna ordered Pina Colada because Timothy recommended them but...the taste was...erm...let's just say that it wasnt what they expected.



Incriminating evidence of Donna having all 5 drinks by herself :P



I ordered Cosmopolitan and it was damn sweet, but nice.



Imjad ordered Virgin Mary which tasted like a bad concoctation of tomato juice and celery...which actually is how Virgin Mary is made though. I wonder why it's so popular when it's like so yucky? Anyway, this drink sparked off a weird conversation about Virgin Mary and virgin.



When I went home and watched an old episode of SMAPxSMAP, there was this part where Nakai-san mixed celery sherbet and tomato together for Eguchi Yosuke. So coincidental~



This was Eguchi Yosuke's expression after trying it. Similar to everyone's who tried the Virgin Mary.

Imjad requested for the singer at Harry's to sing a song for Donna and he was like a really good singer~! After hearing the song, all of us dashed off to board the last train and luckily, we managed to do so. I've never taken the last train before!!! It's either I take the train before it or I miss it. Haha, so fun~ Anyway, had a really great time and thanks to Donna for inviting me :D

Happy 21st!!! You can watch R21 now~

More photos can be found in the gallery.
Photos were from my camera, Donna's camera and Jessie's camera.

16/02/08 - Karaoke with Taiwan friends

Was called down for work last minute on Saturday and got to know of this new colleague at work. Okay, not exactly colleague because I'm not working there anymore. Anyway, although I didnt get to meet him face-to-face, I dont like him already because he is either damn desperate, or damn frivolous, or over-friendly and a big show-off.


Supposed to meet up with the people I went to Taiwan with for karaoke at 8pm so I met up with Denise first to go there together. Didnt know how to get to the karaoke place from the MRT station and had to ask for directions. -_- Anyway, the karaoke place was damn pretty and they had 2 LCD screens! The only bad thing was that they were playing CNY music videos when we stepped into the room. I thought that I would be spared this year from CNY music videos because my sister's not here but...NOOOOOOOO!!! 2 LCD screens somemore!


Jimmy and Naina singing a duet together. My god!!! They look damn sweet together la!


Jimmy doing his best impersonation of Fei Yu Qing. :D


Victor sleeping away. Denise threw some peanuts at him but he didnt wake up. Rest of us continued singing but still didnt wake up. Placed the microphone near his nose to see if he was snoring but he still continued to sleep on. It wasnt until when Jimmy tried to stuff a cracker into his mouth that he finally woke up. Sugee!


Saw this while walking towards the carpark. Seems like the cat also know what's called self-service :D Hee. Too bad no one was there to take it's order.

Sang from 8pm to 2+. While walking towards the carpark, we saw people arranging and tying newspapers in stacks so that they can deliver them. Never knew that they had to prepare all these so freaking early! Anyway, Jimmy and Naina sent Denise and me all the way home. So nice of them~! Thank you!!! And also, thanks for the treat too~!

SHOPPING with Donna

Today was shopping day~! Met up with Donna at around 11am and proceeded to our first stop...Far East Plaza. Reached there at about 12 plus and shockingly, most shops on level 1 were still closed. Still on holiday? Unlike the rowdy Far East Plaza that I hate, Far East Plaza was surprisingly quiet today. Didnt have to say a single 'Excuse me please' at all today. So happy that there were no crowds at all! Hehe. Walked a few rounds around level 1 but didnt buy anything at all. Cannot make it! What kind of shopping is this? Since we were both hungry, we decided to have lunch first before starting to prowl the shops again.


Ate at SU Korean Restaurant.


Was flipping through the menu to see what to eat when we came across this dish called BBQ Chicken Gizzard. However, the Chinese name for that dish was 'kao ya shen', which basically means BBQ Duck Kidney. So...is the dish chicken or duck? Or a mixture of two? Hmmm.


To solve the mystery, Donna ordered the the non-BBQ version of it. Determined that it was chicken after eating it. Okay, I lied, we are not that good at tasting what kind of meat that was. We cheated by asking the waitress...who seemed confused as well.


Love Korean restaurants because you can basically get full just by eating the side dishes only. The kimchi was a tad too spicy for my liking. Loved the rest though.


Ordered the set lunch version of ddeokboki. The amount of ingredients was a little pathetic. No fishcake, one miserable piece of meat and lots of ddeok. Maybe because it was cheaper than the non-set-lunch version? So they had to cut back on the ingredients? Nevertheless, this dish was good.


Ordered Korean Seafood Pancake as well. Damn crispy and tasty...although not much ingredients were in it.

Nearing to the end of lunch, I saw Li Ming and her mom enter the restaurant. Tried to call her but she didnt pick up her phone. :( Anyway, after lunch, we went to Wisma to SHOP. After what seemed like eternity of trying on clothes, I finally bought myself new garb! So happy although it wasnt that cheap...and I used my own money somemore. Went to Topshop to look at clothes too but didnt get anything there. Saw this freaking long by Kate Moss dress that was seriously taller than Donna and me. Discrimination against short people lo...the dress. :( Next up was Dorothy Perkins and I bought something there again! On the verge of going broke le...who wants to support me? Hehe.

Walked a little more and because my puny brain told me to wear heels today, my legs were aching like mad. Couldnt tahan it anymore and hence, went to buy a pair of nice slippers. Wanted to change into slippers in the toilet but was too tired and lazy to walk to the toilet so I just changed my shoes...right infront of some Takashimaya office. Wonder if the CCTV caught me changing shoes or not? So paiseh!


Took a rest at Royal Copenhagen.


Donna's Roasted Mushroom Soup.


I asked the lady what kind of cakes she had and she replied to me that I have to go the front counter to see for myself. As I was seated like miles away from the front counter and my legs were wobbly from all that walking, I pleaded with her to just name me a few and I just chose the one that she mentioned first. Got laughed at by her but whatever la, I am that lazy. Haha. Delicious blueberry cheesecake.


Royal Copenhagen Iced Tea. The waitress asked me if I wanted sweetener and I replied no. She has this look of disbelief and asked me another time. My response was negative. Sorry lo, not everyone adds sweetener to their tea. I like the original taste of the tea. Am I weird? Hmmm.

Went to Push and Bear to shop for Donna's top and Donna made her first purchase of the day there! I also saw the first eye-candy of the day there too! So happy~ Went to Gramophone(dont know how to spell the CD shop's name) to look at CDs. Sat down to rest inside and decided to take photos together. Something that we've never done before...according to Donna.


Take 1. FAIL. Too far apart.


Take 2. Much better. :D

Next up was HMV. Some teenager was listening to the songs on display there via headphones and she was singing out loud at the same time!!! OMG, never knew that people actually did that. Worse still, she was totally out of tune and we had no idea what she was singing. While singing, she was looking around to see if anyone was admiring her beautiful vocals. OMG...made me laugh like mad. Someone please hand her a Singapore Idol application form. She's our answer to America's William Hung. :D


Walked around Hereen after leaving HMV and decided to take neoprints. Eh...there was like only a few people there lo! Normally I would have to queue up to take neoprints but there was not a single queue there today. In addition to that, lots of shops around the neoprint shop are no longer in business. Man, I really have not been to Hereen in like AGES. Didnt even know they had a little walkway leading to the neoprint shop.


Freaking empty. Orchard area was freaking empty today. Even Lot 1 had more crowd. WTF?!

Okay, now onto the neoprints that we took.


Like the background alot.


Shit...my hair was messy.


Aaaah!!! Save us~! -_-


A bit out of season though...haha


Peace peace~


Hanabi~!

Edit: Eh Donna, we took a photo together before can. On the day of Baccalaurete Service in ACJC. Remember this? :D

Met up with hy on Thursday to pass her the CDs I bought for her. Ate dessert at Ajitei. As we walked into Ajitei, I straight away thought that we were in the wrong country or something. The reason being that there were these 3 guys seated in the restaurant wearing...winter caps. WTF? If it was raining cats and dogs then probably its somewhat understandable as to why they were wearing that but it was seriously damn hot that day. Weird people exist everywhere I guess. :D


Ordered Mango Kakigoori. When we were ordering, the waiter who took our orders seemed to have difficulties in comprehending what we said. He looked at the menu a few times before finally writing down our orders. I think that he looked at the menu even longer than us. So anyway, the dessert was good and it was even better because it was hy's treat. :D Yay, I am stingy. After dessert, I asked hy where she wanted to go to and she replied...'Daiso'. I almost fainted on the spot after hearing that because hy works at Daiso lo!

My sister went back to Penang yesterday so we went to the airport to have lunch. Ate at Crystal Jade and I saw this damn fucking tall pilot. I swear that he was like at least 3 heads taller than me or something. His girlfriend had to wear killer heels so that she could at least see his face when talking to him. Back to the food, we ordered like seriously too much food for 3 people.



We ate more but I was too lazy to take photos anymore. In fact, we ate so much such that...my sister missed her flight. After sending her into the departure hall, my father and I looked at the monitor. Eh? Gate closed already. Hahahaha. So we decided to walk around Changi Airport a bit to kill time just in case she really missed her flight. We even went to Kokon Tozai to talk crap with the salesperson there. In the end, after waiting for like 15mins or so with no reply from my sister, we decided to head home. All was fine until when we were about to reach home, my sister called saying that she missed her flight and she had to take the later flight. So...guess what? We made a U-turn back to the airport. WTF...going to the airport 2 times a day. Anyway, I'm damn happy we went back because I managed to convince my father to buy me a bag from Carlo Rino. :D Lalala.

Since we were already at Changi, we decided to go see the newly-constructed Terminal 3.


Not all the shops there were occupied although the grand opening's slated to be on 9th January.


Stood under this signboard for a fairly long time and still had no idea who I was supposed to meet.


Didnt know that Terminal 3 already had incoming/outgoing flights. Probably just simulation?


The glass lift. Reminded me of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Seriously, what's with glass structures and Singapore? Esplanade also has lots of glass structures. Although it looks very futuristic, it's also a good place to look out for people wearing skirts and low-cut tops.


Ue-mairimasu~


Huge ass check-in counters. Since Terminal 3 was relatively empty that day, little kids who were there decided that they just had to play catching there. Irritating.


Cool way to save money. This is the ceiling by the way.


Airport? Jungle?


I thought that I was back in Japan when I saw this dustbin. I seriously doubt that any Singaporean will throw rubbish accordingly lo. They will just probably throw their rubbish into whichever bin that is empty, for convenience sakes.


Modal of Terminal 3. Not as impressive as the real thing I must say.


Toilets in every terminal look the same to me.


Can I get a GST refund too?


Wonder what this structure is. My father said that it was a fan but wtf would they need such a big fan in an air-conditioned place. I secretly think that this might be the new control tower. Who knows~ I might be correct.


On the way back, my father decided to give his car a long-deserved wash. The poor guy who was washing the car really had to wipe and wipe and wipe and wipe...because the car was just too dirty. Hello, it's not that cheap to wash cars k! Must stretch one's dollar. Wait till the car's really dirty than go wash it. Cost the same anyway.


Woman vacumming the car. Either she was really tired that day or the car was freaking dirty. She kept dropping the vacumm cleaner on purpose and waited for a minute or so before picking it up...and yes, dropping it again. -_-


Car covered in snow! Or rather, soap.

Ok, rather boring post. Feeling damn bored now. Dying of boredom. I have nothing to do!!!

Went out with Donna last Saturday to get her MCR queue jumpers and to have lunch. Ate at Takashimaya and I had chawanmushi and oyster toji.


The oh-my-god-so-freaking-good chawanmushi. Not that cheap(as compared to the lousy Sakae Sushi one) but not that expensive as well.


Oyster toji. I should've ordered fried oyster curry or something because the oysters in this dish was almost non-existent. They were so pathetically small and I was like eating the batter the whole time. Donna ordered the hire katsu toji set and it was so much more worth it. Maybe because pork is cheaper? Hmmmn...

Walking around Orchard on a Saturday sucks because the people traffic there is seriously bad and the trains are always crowded till the extent that you feel that you cannot breathe at all. Then again, becuase Christmas is nearing, Orchard is like crowded on almost everyday now. Hate it. Hate it even more when irresponsible parents let their whiny kids shout and run about like no ones business. I hope their kids accidentally run off the MRT platform when the train is approaching. :D Okay, too evil but seriously, I really hate kids who cannot sit still and cannot stand not letting the whole world know of their existence. Talking about irritating kids, I was working at my father's place one day and there was one who came for a dental check-up. He was running all over the place and kept opening doors that had the 'NO ENTRY' sign on them. However, when it was finally his turn, he started wailing and ran out of the clinic and refused to come back till his father lured him back with a toy. Sometimes, I pity primary school teachers who have kids like that in their classes.

Li Ming came back from Taiwan and Hong Kong the day before and she got me a cute bookmark and a pair of chopsticks from Disneyland~



Li Ming's brother came back from Japan and he got me this sweet called Tokyo Banana. The English on the wrapper is like really bad and makes no sense at all but the sweet was delicious.


Received the recording of the Korean Speech Contest. OMG, I dont even know if I want to watch it again or not. I'm damn scared of looking at myself deliver the speech. I think I sucked. :D


Went Karaoke with hy yesterday. Although I basically hate Orchard because it's the holiday season right now, I'm totally loving the number of high school students who go to Orchard during this period. There were like quite a few cute Japanese high school boys at the karaoke place. OMG~! Almost died of happiness. Lalalala. I was seated at a strategic position where I could basically see everyone who were there. Slit eyes are like damn sexy~ I should really stop now because if I continue, I'm scared that I might be arrested for being a potential paedophile. :P

Saw two girls who were wearing kigurumis. One Stitch and one Winnie the Pooh. In Japan, that's probably normal but in oh-so-freaking-hot Singapore?! Then again, the weather has been kind of cold recently so I'm guessing that they wore it for warmth. ~_~


Ate sukiyaki yesterday. It was so freaking worth it. I paid around $15~17 and got to eat this!!! The only disadvantage of this dish was that by the time I got through 90% (didnt finish it) of it, I was too full to order the dessert that I was eyeing. At Sakae Sushi, you basically get the hotpot only for this price. No rice included.


hy gave me my early Christmas present yesterday because she was lazy to bring it home and wrap it up. -_-. Haha, thanks anyway! I promise I will read it and will also find the CDs you want in Taiwan :D
